tish icy, i have ET45 7 x 17's on mine and they rubbed like fuck when i put them on, i had to have LOADs of metal bending done and they stil rub a bit with people in the back...
Not all corsas r the same, some fit ok some dont, its vauxhalls manufacturing tollerances...

yep Ive got ET45 17s & mine rubbed alot till I flared the arches, cut the bolts back & chopped some of the arch away! Can only have 1 person in the back if they sit in the middle but it still rubs then!

i would say the minimum u shud consider is et45 any lower i.e et40 and your gonna get major problems.
The original offset is et49 so the closer you get to that the better!
I have et45's on mine with a drop of around 40mm and only get rubbing on the rears when there is a person in the back otherwise its spot on, I have obviously done the above advice regarding modifications tho!
